Could anyone shed some light on what is generating the following messages on one of our netapp F330's:
[sm_recover]: get RPC port for
<host=machinea.foo.com,prog=100024,ver=1,prot=17
failed
[sm_recover]: no address for host <machineb.foo.com>
The listed machines were recently taken out of service or moved to another network. Any opions are welcome...
The filers try to save state so they know what machines are clients of theirs.
Go ahead and blow away the /etc/sm/recover and/or the /etc/sm/state files.
It doesn't hurt the filer; the filer will regenerate those files when it needs them, but it'll get rid of the error messages from the filer trying to talk to machines that don't exist anymore.

What you say makes sense, but the only files in /etc/sm are : state,monitor, and notify. I tried moving /etc/sm/state but the messages are still coming.
Is it safe to remove all files in the /etc/sm directory?
The F330 is running version 3.1c
